  • Bijan Robinson RB | ATL

    Falcons' Bijan Robinson: Nearly 200 yards in loss to Jets

    Robinson rushed 23 times for 142 yards and a touchdown while catching five of seven targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Jets.

    Robinson posted his second-highest total of the season with 193 scrimmage yards. He was stopped for no gain on first-and-goal from the one-yard line late in the first half and watched Tyler Allgeier power in a game-tying one-yard touchdown on the next play. Bijan produced a rushing touchdown of his own with a five-yard scoring run in the third quarter, but it was only his fifth touchdown run of the season compared to Allgeier's eight. Robinson has produced at least 107 scrimmage yards in three consecutive games and in eight of 12 games overall heading into a Week 14 home game against Seattle's stout run defense.

  • Bucky Irving RB | TB

    Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Strong showing in return

    Irving rushed 17 times for 61 yards and a touchdown while bringing in both targets for 20 yards in the Buccaneers' 20-17 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

    Irving notably jumped right back into a true lead-back role in his first game action since Week 4, despite talk during the week he'd see limited snaps. The standout second-year back outpaced both Rachaad White and Sean Tucker by 15 carries, and in addition to his 13-yard scoring run late in the third quarter, he also saw a one-yard touchdown in the second quarter wiped out by a holding penalty. Perhaps just as important as his individual statistics was the fact Irving proved capable of handling a hefty workload immediately, which certainly pleases his fantasy managers heading into a Week 14 home matchup against a vulnerable Saints defense next Sunday.

  • Brock Wright TE | DET

    Lions' Brock Wright: Could miss extended time

    Lions coach Dan Campbell said Sunday that Wright is dealing with an injury to his trachea and could be in for with a long-term absence, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Pressreports.

    Wright didn't play Thursday against Green Bay, and it sounds like he could be sidelined awhile. Sam LaPorta (back) is expected to miss the rest of the season, so Ross Dwelley and Anthony Firkser will be the Lions' top two tight ends should Wright indeed be in for further absences. Campbell also indicated that Wright is undergoing further scans, so his timeline for a potential return remains uncertain.

  • Brock Purdy QB | SF

    49ers' Brock Purdy: Produces two TDs in win

    Purdy completed 16 of 29 passes for 168 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-8 win over the Browns. He added four rushing yards and a TD on two carries.

    High winds in Cleveland made passing difficult, but Purdy was able to connect with Jauan Jennings for a seven-yard score in the fourth quarter after the QB ran in a two-yard touchdown of his own in the third. The rushing score was Purdy's first in three starts since returning from a toe injury and is the best sign yet that he's fully healthy. He'll get a bye to rest up next week before the 49ers host the Titans in Week 15.

  • Amani Hooker SAF | TEN

    Titans' Amani Hooker: Nursing rib injury

    Hooker sustained a rib injury during the Titans' 25-3 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.

    Hooker appeared to sustain the injury late in the fourth quarter and did not return, finishing with four tackles (three solo). He'll undergo further tests to determine the severity of his injury, and rookie third-rounder Kevin Winston would be slated to start at safety alongside Xavier Woods if Hooker were to miss time.

  • Giovanni Ricci TE | DET

    Giovanni Ricci: Signs with Detroit

    The Lions signed Ricci to the practice squad Sunday.

    Ricci was cut by the Vikings Aug. 26 and had not yet been signed to a practice squad or roster this regular season. The tight end likely was signed for additional depth amid the absences of Sam LaPorta (back), Brock Wright (neck) and Shane Zylstra (ankle).

  • Maliek Collins DT | CLE

    Browns' Maliek Collins: Dealing with quad injury

    Head coach Kevin Stefanski said Collins suffered a quad injury during Cleveland's loss to the 49ers on Saturday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN reports.

    Collins is set to undergo imaging on his quad after being carted off in the third quarter of Sunday's matchup. If the 30-year-old is forced to miss any games, Shelby Harris should fill in as one of the team's starting defensive tackles.

  • Titans' Xavier Restrepo: Carted off field late

    Restrepo (ankle) was carted off the field toward the end of the fourth quarter of the Titans' 25-3 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.

    Restrepo made his NFL regular-season debut in Week 12 and finished with two catches (on six targets) for 26 yards. He was elevated to the active roster to play in Sunday's game and hauled in his lone target for 15 yards, but he suffered a serious ankle injury late, which puts his availability for the rest of the 2025 season in jeopardy.

  • Alohi Gilman SAF | KC

    Ravens' Alohi Gilman: Finishes with eight stops

    Gilman recorded eight tackles (five solo) and a pass breakup in Thursday's 32-14 loss to the Bengals.

    Gilman also played on all 83 defensive snaps, the seventh time this season he's played on every defensive snap. Gilman has 34 tackles (18 solo), three pass breakups, two fumble recoveries and a forced fumble in seven games with the Ravens since being traded by the Chargers in early October.

  • Texans' Azeez Al-Shaair: Clears concussion protocol

    Al-Shaair cleared the league's concussion protocol and returned to Sunday's game against the Colts, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Al-Shaair did not miss much before returning to his role as the Texans' middle linebacker and defensive signal caller. Christian Harris will take a backseat to the captain and will likely not have many more defensive snaps.
